Every heard someone call another a 'crap poster'? Probably, and often times it's not a rare sight to see. However, do you actually understand what makes someone a crap-poster? Yeah, me neither because most of the time it's very biased and not very insightful. So without any further probably unanticipated ado, here is my extremely biased list of the 5 post and poster qualities that hopefully has the essence of good post in it.

Also, I apologize in advance if a use of anyone's username offends you (or even the user used). It's just simply my opinion and has no direct correlation with how I feel about you, only your post quality.

-

The Greatest!:

The rarest of all post qualities. Any post that's well thought out, of good length (a full paragraph or two serves nicely), conveys the posters thoughts and doesn't start a twelve page argument that gets deleted with one person's ego flaring up (self declared winner) and the other being hated for life (self declared pseudo-winner). Hardly will you ever find anyone with 10k posts or more who posts like this, sadly. Even though examples of these posts are rare, one poster has almost always been an example; zipo99 (correct me if incorrect on spelling).



Good:

Uncommon posts that are normally of decent size (a few sentences), thought about before being posted, normally conveys the posters thoughts in one way or another and won't lead to an argument in most cases. In some instances, a good one-liner can earn a good rating. While the requirements for being a 'good' later isn't strict, most people with over 10k posts still won't qualify. An example of a good poster would be people like blobbem, GoshiDoll, PlusPower, and MadSanity.



Neutral:

Common posts that are basically a few words long, sort of thought of, vaguely convey the poster's thoughts and are normally overlooked resulting in no conversation over it. Anyone with 10k or more is most likely going to be neutral, although some may have gone up or down from this point they're most likely OVERALL neutral. Examples of a neutral poster would be brightview12, HunterStrait, and theMajesticForce



Bad:

Shockingly common posts that are composed of few words, no insight as far as the readers can tell, normally sets out the posters thoughts out with "i like it" and are normally ignored. However, in some cases it may be a decently sized post, however with nothing unique about it other than a jumble of words mashed together into a wall of text. Threads considered bad are L#Ds, Q&As (only when multiple are made and bumped frequently; one q&a is fine), favorite OT'er threads (exceptions are ones with good reasons), counting threads and the alike. Examples of bad posters are RuthlessGlory, Slydexia, and EaglesflightV3.



The Worst!:

The uncommon, but still present everyday posts that make you wonder, "Why is this person even posting this?" kind of post. Almost always it will be around the length of one word (or even character), be totally pulled out of their head with no thought, leaves you confused as to why they posted that and can start an argument over how bad of a poster they are (rarely, but has happened). These sort of posts include counting on counting threads, stand alone emojis, and things like "lol", "lolno", and "k". Examples of these sort of posters would be AhhTree for her infamous thousands upon thousands of "k" posts followed by BOONEHead who counted most of his post count in Forum Games, which is infamous as well.

-

There's so much more I could cover, but this is the basics. Never forget your attitude can greatly affect people's opinions on you. Examples would be Deinemutti360, while his posts weren't very long or anything along those lines; he was still praised as a great OT'er. This list should honestly only help you get an idea of the concept.

Hopefully this helped you understand the different types of post and poster quality that many people judge others upon here in Off Topic. May this thread help you soar to new heights (or plummet if that's what you desire) and remember that quality is an actual social standard here.

I'm not going to answer that directly and just say you're not bad in my books. I don't want this thread becoming a rating thread. Also, this list can be used to improve my opinion on you, however not everyone. These are just my typical standards.

Well, yeah, this list was formed around my opinions. Not everyone, not even a lot probably, will agree with the people I list on this thread. At best someone will say "I agree". However, from what I've seen them post it's never been lacking luster.

Hey, I don't think everyone is bad. In fact, all you have to do is post at least a single sentence and you're above the bar. Whether I'm optimistic about OT having good posters in the community or not, that's just what I think. I don't really pay attention to most threads either considering I'm uninterested in them and threads I am interested in may just have better content then threads you're interested in.

I've also been on OT since 2012, so I wouldn't say I'm not new, but not exactly old.

You listed some of the BEST OTers.

"You listed some of the BEST OTers."

That's not what I think, which is why I stated this is a biased list. However since you brought it up I'll explain my reasoning, I guess.

RuthlessGlory: Botted quite a bit of his posts, posts random stuff with no meaning, little to add to the topic of most threads and acts like a butt to people.

Slydexia: A lot of posts with few words and trolls a lot (ending with low quality posts). Sly is actually a friend of mine and he has actually actually admitted to being a bad poster from past conversations and doesn't really care.

EaglesflightV3: Spamming to get to 2k with one word posts and multiple threads reminding us of this.



I actually have no beef with any of these people, I'm just starting my opinion. Just like you're starting yours, which is perfectly fine.
